Not all of these have been awarded the prestigious Michelin Star, but all have been recommended by the guide, and some are still offering a take-away service.
9. La Locanda, Gisburn
A charming low-beamed, flag-floored restaurant run by a keen couple: a little corner of Italy in Lancashire. Extensive menu of hearty homemade dishes; try the tasty pastas. Top quality local and imported produce; well-chosen wine list.
10. Hipping Hall, Cowan Bridge
A charming part-15C blacksmith's named after the stepping stones over the beck. The elegant restaurant has a superb beamed ceiling, a minstrel’s gallery and a medieval feel. Creative, original dishes feature on two tasting menus and come with wine pairings. The best bedrooms are in the outbuildings.
11. White Swan, Fence
The sign might proclaim ‘The White Swan’ but to the locals this traditional-looking pub will always be the Mucky Duck – so-called because the coal miners used to stop here for a pint on their way home from work.
